Direct (DIF) and indirect (IIF) immunofluorescence, indirect immunoperoxidase conjugate (IPC) and unlabelled antibody peroxidase antiperoxidase (PAP) staining was performed on sections of artificial substrate containing different concentrations of human immunoglobulin (Ig)A or IgG. Detection sensitivity, in terms of the lowest amount of discernible antigen, was evaluated by direct microscopy and by microphotometry. Staining efficiency (signal-to-noise ratio) was evaluated by microphotometry. Only minor differences in antigen detection sensitivity were found when IPC and PAP were compared with DIF and IIF under appropriate conditions. The sensitivity of DIF was only marginally improved by raised conjugate concentration and prolonged incubation time. Microphotometry of DIF on ethanol-fixed IgA substrate revealed that the staining intensity increased proportionally with the antigen concentration whereas on formaldehyde-fixed substrate a progressive masking of the antigen was indicated which, however, could be overcome by applying raised conjugate concentration and prolonged incubation time. Such antigenic self masking was of relatively little importance to IPC and PAP staining, probably because of the inherent amplification in these methods. An additional masking effect due to extraneous protein was revealed by DIF when ethanol-fixed sections had been soaked in bovine serum albumin and postfixed with formaldehyde; unmasking was achieved by proteolytic treatment of the sections. 相似文献

Summary Paired indirect immunoenzyme staining based on primary antisera from the same species was performed sequentially without intermediate antibody elution. The first antigen was labelled brown by an immunoperoxidase procedure (either the two-stage indirect method, the unlabelled antibody peroxidase-antiperoxidase method, or the avidin-biotin bridge method using diaminobenzidine (DAB) and hydrogen peroxide as the substrates. The second antigen was labelled blue by applying a two-stage indirect immuno-alkaline phosphatase procedure using naphthol AS phosphate and Fast Blue BB salt as the substrate. In this way, polyclonal mucosal immunocytes were revealed in distinctly contrasting colours when stained for and light chains. Glucagon and somatostatin (D) cells in human pancreatic islets, and gastrin and D cells in human gastric antral glands, were likewise clearly differentiated. Conversely, a mixed colour appeared in some immunocytes after staining for and chains. However, unbalanced colour mixing was sometimes difficult to interpret, and additional experiments demonstrated that unwanted interactions could take place between the two sequences of reagents if the density of the DAB deposits was insufficient. These pitfalls were incompatible with unequivocal double staining in the same cell. Nevertheless, paired staining could be conveniently applied with the described procedures when prior knowledge had established that the antigens in question were located in separate cells. 相似文献

Direct immunofluorescence (DIF) and the unlabelled antibody peroxidase--antiperoxidase (PAP) methods were compared on a quantitative basis with regard to visualization of IgA immunocytes and gastrin cells in human gastric mucosa, and secretin cells in canine duodenal mucosa. With both DIF and PAP, two serial sections from 13 biopsy specimens were evaluated for each cell type--thus keeping tissue preparation the same with both staining methods. The three cell types were well visualized regardless of method, and there was no significant difference between cell numbers recorded with the DIF or PAP. When blind duplicate counts were obtained with an interval of three weeks, comparisons of weighted differences and the Kendall's rank correlation test indicated good precision; the reproducibility of duplicate enumerations with each method was comparable to that between the two methods. It was concluded that DIF and PAP are equally applicable for studies of these three cell types under the conditions used in this investigation. 相似文献

A comparison of three immunoperoxidase techniques for antigen detection in colorectal carcinoma tissues 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13
We compared the streptavidin-peroxidase conjugate (SP) method of immunoperoxidase histochemistry to the unlabeled antibody (PAP) and avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex (ABC) techniques in human colorectal carcinoma tissues stained with a monoclonal antibody for expression of carcinoembryonic antigen. Compared to the ABC and PAP method, the SP method produced stronger staining intensity and very low background staining. This was true when other antibody isotypes, other antibody species, other organs, and another tumor-associated antigen were used. Moreover, the SP procedure time could be reduced to one third that of the ABC or PAP methods without compromising accuracy, and the SP reagent is stable for several months. The chemical nature of the streptavidin molecule accounts, in large part, for the advantages of the SP method. 相似文献

Functional characterization of LFA-1 antigens in the interaction of human NK clones and target cells 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
R E Schmidt G Bartley H Levine S F Schlossman J Ritz 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1985,135(2):1020-1025
In the present studies we analyzed the role of LFA-1 antigens in the interaction between NK clones and target cells. The use of various cloned NK cell lines allowed us to analyze homogeneous populations of NK cells which ordinarily comprise only a small fraction of peripheral blood lymphocytes and are extremely heterogeneous with respect to phenotype and specificity. Indirect immunofluorescence with monoclonal antibodies against the alpha (MHM24) and beta (MHM23) chains of the LFA-1 antigen revealed similar patterns of positive reactivity with all NK clones. Both monoclonal antibodies exerted a significant blocking effect on NK cytotoxicity against target cells such as Molt-4 and CEM, whereas the inhibition was very weak against other targets such as K562 and HSB cells. Additive blocking effects were seen when both monoclonal antibodies MHM23 and MHM24 were added to the cytotoxicity assays. When we compared the inhibitory effect of MHM23 and MHM24 on uncultured peripheral blood NK cells and IL 2-activated NK cells, inhibition of cytotoxicity also was found to be primarily dependent on the individual target cells. Thus, the inhibitory activity of anti-LFA-1 antibody was shown to be independent of the phenotypic and functional heterogeneity of the NK clones, activated NK cells, and unstimulated NK cells utilized in these studies. These blocking effects were found to be independent of the LFA-1 antigen expression on the target cell membrane and inhibition occurred only when antibody was bound to the effector cells. Comparison of the effects of anti-LFA-1, anti-T3, and anti-clonotypic antibodies against a Ti-like structure of different NK clones with a mature T cell phenotype demonstrated that each of these antibodies acts on the effector cells in an independent and additive fashion. However, unlike T3 and NKTa antigen, LFA-1 antigen expression is not modulated by cell surface interaction with antibodies specific for this molecule. 相似文献

Two-color immunoperoxidase staining: visualization of anatomic relationships between immunoreactive neural elements 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
M B Hancock 《The American journal of anatomy》1986,175(2-3):343-352
A method for differentially staining for two antigens in single sections is described. Paraffin-embedded or Vibratome sections are incubated in two sequences of immunoperoxidase (PAP) reagents using a diaminobenzidine (DAB)-nickel ammonium sulfate solution to localize the first antigen, and DAB alone to localize the second antigen. With these chromagens, black and amber-colored reaction products are generated at the locations of the first and second antigens, respectively. The reaction products are stable and provide excellent color contrast. With this technique, the anatomical relationships between two sets of immunoreactive elements can be studied in individual sections. Intimate spatial associations that would probably not be detected by an examination of adjacent sections stained for each antigen can be visualized with this two-color immunoperoxidase method. 相似文献

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans from mouse mammary epithelial cells: localization on the cell surface with a monoclonal antibody 总被引:28,自引:13,他引:15
Mouse mammary epithelial cells, of the normal murine mammary gland (NMuMG) cell line, bear a heparan sulfate-rich proteoglycan (HSPG) on their surfaces. A hybridoma (281-2) secreting a monoclonal antibody that recognizes this HSPG was produced by fusion of SP-2/0 myeloma cells with spleen cells from rats immunized with NMuMG cells. The 281-2 monoclonal antibody is directed against the core protein of the cell surface HSPG, as demonstrated by (a) recognition of the isolated proteoglycan but not its glycosaminoglycan chains, (b) co-localization of 281-2-specific antigen and radioactive cell surface HSPG on gradient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and on isopycnic centrifugation, and (c) abolition of immunofluorescent staining of the NMuMG cell surface by the intact, but not the protease-digested ectodomain of the cell surface HSPG. The antibody is specific for cell surface HSPG and does not recognize the HSPG that accumulates extracellularly beneath the basal cell surface. Therefore, the 281-2 antibody may be used to isolate the cell surface HSPG and to explore its distribution in tissues. 相似文献

Double stains for gonadotropins and gonadotropin-releasing hormone were developed for fixed whole pituitary cells from cycling female rats. Monolayer cells were stimulated with [d-Lys6]GnRH, fixed in 2.5% glutaraldehyde, and then stained for luteinizing hormone (LH) (1:50,000-12 h) or follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) (1:60,000-12 h) and the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex technique (ABC) with a jet-black substrate (nickel intensified diaminobenzidine—DAB). This was followed by a stain for the other gonadotropin with either ABC or peroxidase-antiperoxidase complex (PAP) techniques and amber (DAB) or red (3-amino-9-ethyl-carbazole) substrates. Additional monolayers were stimulated with biotinylated [d-Lys6]GnRH and stained with the ABC technique and the black (nickel-DAB) substrate. These monolayers were then stained immunocytochemically for LH or FSH with either ABC or PAP methods and orange or red substrates. The controls showed that the omission of the second primary antiserum abolished the stain indicating that the second staining solutions did not react with components in the first group. The addition of the second peroxidase substrate in sequence after the first stain indicated that no residual peroxidase activity remained from the first stain. Our tests also showed that saponin was not needed to aid reagent or antibody penetration. The dual stains demonstrated that 30-60% of the gonadotropes stored LH and FSH together, often in separate regions of the same cell. Some cells contained only one hormone (20-22%). The dual stains for GnRH and gonadotropins demonstrated that 80-90% of the GnRH bound cells are gonadotropes. These techniques allow a study of storage sites for multiple hormones in or on whole cells. The studies agree with and augment the results from the use of serial sections. 相似文献

A complex between secretory component and an immunoglobulin A (IgA) myeloma dimer has been studied in vitro as a model to elucidate the mechanism of the formation of disulfide bonds during assembly in vivo of secretory immunoglobin A. A small amount of free thiol groups, totally about 0.4 groups per mole of protein, were shown to be present on both the heavy and light chains of the IgA dimer, but not on its J-chain, while no such groups could be demonstrated on free secretory component. The SH-groups on IgA most likely exist as a result of incomplete oxidation of some intra-or interchain disulfide bonds of the molecule, analogous to what has been suggested for IgG. Several types of evidence indicated that the disulfide bonds between secretory component and IgA are formed after the noncovalent association of the two proteins by a sulfhydryl group-disulfide bond exchange reaction, in which the small amount of free sulfhydryl groups on the IgA dimer initiate the reaction by reducing a reactive disulfide bond on secretory component. This exchange reaction, which thus proceeds by the mechanism of so-called disulfide interchange reactions, requires certain conformational features of one or both of the proteins and leads to the formation of presumably two new interchain disulfide bonds between secretory component and IgA. The reaction does not progress to completion, however, but ends in an equilibrium so that a small proportion of the secretory component molecules always are unattached by disulfide bonds. 相似文献

本文介绍一种碱性磷酸酶标A蛋白加强的PAP技术。采用PAP技术、碱性磷酸酶标A蛋白(PAAP)技术PAAP和加强的PAP(PAP-PAAP)技术显示下丘脑室旁核催产素(OT)能神经元。结果发现,其中使用PAP-PAAP技术免疫反应产物的显色最深。此技术的原理可能是,由于A蛋白分子至少有四个位点能与IgG分子的Fc段高亲合性地结合,故在该技术中,先经过PAP程序的三步免疫反应并显色后,每个与一抗结合的二抗分子上和每个与二抗结合的PAP复合物分子上各暴露一个能与A蛋白分子结合的Fc段,在随后经过PAAP技术处理时,部分PAAP复合物分子就结合在这些Fc段上,经显色后,PAAP技术显示的浅紫兰色与PAP技术显示的浅棕褐色重叠,变成更深的反差明显的深棕褐色。 相似文献

The staining efficiency of peroxidase labeled immunoglobulin conjugate, used either as antigen or as antibody, has been compared with that of peroxidase-anti-peroxidase complex (PAP) on ultrathin sections of araldite embedded material. The conjugate gave positive results in a two layer method as well as in a three layer method when used as antibody. No staining was observed when it was used as antigen. The conjugation seemed to impair the antigenic reactivity of immunoglobulin. The conjugate when used as antibody in the three layer method gave approximately the same staining efficiency as PAP. 相似文献

The sequential application of the avidin-biotin-peroxidase complex technique was used to localize multiple tissue antigens on a single free floating section of rat brain. Sequential visualization of individual antigens was achieved by the silver-gold-intensified diaminobenzidine (DAB) in the first step, nickel-intensified DAB in the second step, and the DAB alone in the third step of the immunostain procedure. For the demonstration of this method, tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF), and vasopressin (VAS) antisera were used. Sections from the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of rats pretreated with colchicine were stained. Black TH containing cell bodies were clearly distinguished from blue stained CRF cells and from yellow stained VAS-containing cell bodies in the PVN on the 25-30 micron thick vibratome sections. The sequential immunostaining procedure presented here results in superior staining of multiple antigens as compared to that achieved by the sequential application of the peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) technique. 相似文献

Hybridomas that secrete monoclonal antibodies against human pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor (PSTI) were established by fusion of spleen cells obtained from mice immunized with PSTI with mouse NS-I-Ag 4/1 myeloma cells. One of three resulting monoclonal antibodies (KN-1) was found to recognize the N-terminal moiety of the inhibitor, while the others (KN-2 and KN-3) reacted with other as yet undefined parts of the molecule. Trypsin inhibitory activity of PSTI treated with KN-1 monoclonal antibody was the same as that of PSTI itself, thus indicating no relationship between the N-terminal moiety of the PSTI molecule and its inhibitory activity. We further examined the applicability of one of the monoclonal antibodies (KN-1) for immunohistochemical study of human pancreatic cancer tissue including the normal as a model, and found granular staining of the cytoplasm of the normal acinar and duct cells and also of that of adenocarcinoma cells in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. 相似文献

Reactions using diaminobenzidine (DAB) to localize the enzyme peroxidase in neutrophils and peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) complex during immunological staining are usually performed in Tris-HCl or phosphate buffer at pH 7.2-7.6. However, DAB solutions at pH 7.2-7.6 often demonstrate erythrocyte pseudoperoxidase as well. By lowering the pH of the DAB solutions, it is possible to selectively suppress the reactivity of pseudoperoxidase while maintaining optimal reactions in neutrophils and PAP complex. For this purpose we recommend ammonium acetate-citric acid buffer at pH 5.5 (pH 5.0-6.0) containing 44 mg DAB per 100 ml buffer and 0.003%-0.03% with respect to H2O2. 相似文献

Using a monoclonal antibody against dopamine and a rabbit antiserum against serotonin, 5-methoxytryptamine or tryptamine, we were able to achieve the simultaneous localization of two amines in glutaraldehyde-fixed sections of rat dorsal raphe nuclei. In this staining procedure, the first antigen was localized using 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB), while the second antigen was stained using the 1-naphthol basic dye (2-NBD) method. The two antigens were localized in different cells or structures. No overlap of the staining was observed, thus indicating that dopamine is not localized with serotonin, 5-methoxytryptamine or tryptamine. 相似文献

Free polyribosomes isolated from mouse myeloma cells in tissue culture synthesize immunoglobulin chains. The presence of these peptide chains in the cytoplasm of intact myeloma cells has been investigated. Some immunoglobulin chains were observed, but it could not be ruled out that these were originally inside cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum, which were broken during hogenization. We have also investigated the transport of the hypothetical cytoplastic immunoglobulins into the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum after incubation with radioactive amino acids and subsequent chase in the absence of protein synthesis. A model to account for synthesis of immunoglobulins on free polysomes is presented. This model assigns specificity for translation on membrane-bound polysomes to the N-terminal region of secretory proteins. 相似文献

Abstract A monoclonal antibody (mAb h-448) was prepared after cell fusion of mouse myeloma cells(SP2/0-Ag-14) to the spleen cells of mice immunised with serotype h strain (MF25) of Streptococcus downei . The antibody (IgM class) reacted in enzyme immunoassay only with whole cells as well as purified polysaccharide (PS) antigen of Streptococcus sobrinus (types d and g) and Streptococcus downei (serotypy h), but not with cells or purified PS antigen from any other serotypes of the mutants group of streptococci. mAb h-448 also quantitatively precipitated in solution with the purified antigens. Competitive hapten inhibition tests demonstrated that β-methylgalactopyranoside inhibited the reaction most strongly. Although rhamnose also showed a substantial inhibitory effect, the results of this study indicate that the antigenic determinant of the PS antigen has a structure similar to the β-methylgalactopyranoside molecule. 相似文献
